Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefits and priority of Chinese Patent No. 201810662580.9 filed on June 25, 2018 , and Chinese Patent No. 201910463156.6 filed on May 30, 2018 to the National Intellectual Property Administration, PRC, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to an IRAK4 inhibitor and use thereof in preparing a medicament for treating IRAK4-related diseases, in particular to a compound of formula (I) and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

BACKGROUND

Interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase, a member of tyrosine-like kinase (TLK) family, and a key node in the innate immune response involving interleukin-1, 18 and 33, and toll-like receptors. After extracellular signal molecules bind to interleukin receptors or toll-like receptors, proteins are recruited to form a MyD88:IRAK4:IRAK1/2 complex, leading to IRAK1/2 phosphorylation which mediates a series of downstream signaling. Thus p38, JNK, and NF-κB signaling pathways are activated, eventually promoting the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Clinical pathology studies have shown that individuals with IRAK4 mutations have resistance against chronic lung disease and inflammatory bowel disease. IRAK4 deficiency is not lethal in itself, and the individuals can survive to adulthood with a reduced risk of infection over age. Therefore, IRAK4 becomes an important therapeutic target attracting extensive research and development interest.

DEFINITIONS

Unless otherwise stated, the following terms and phrases used herein are intended to have the following meanings. A particular term or phrase, unless otherwise specifically defined, should not be considered as indefinite or unclear, but construed according to its common meaning. When referring to a trade name, it is intended to refer to its corresponding commercial product or its active ingredient.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" is used herein for those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problems or complications, and commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt of the compound disclosed herein, which is prepared from the compound having particular substituents disclosed herein and a relatively nontoxic acid or base. When the compound disclosed herein contains a relatively acidic functional group, a base addition salt can be given by contacting the neutral form of such a compound with a sufficient amount of a base in a pure solution or a suitable inert solvent. Pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts include sodium, potassium, calcium, ammonium, organic amine, or magnesium salts, or similar salts. When the compound disclosed herein contains a relatively basic functional group, an acid addition salt can be given by contacting the neutral form of such a compound with a sufficient amount of an acid in a pure solution or a suitable inert solvent. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts include salts derived from inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, bicarbonate radical, phosphoric acid, monohydrogen phosphate, dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid, hydrogen sulfate, hydroiodic acid, phosphorous acid; and salts derived from organic acids, such as acetic acid, propionic acid, isobutyric acid, maleic acid, malonic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, methanesulfonic acid. Also included are salts of amino acids (e.g., arginine, etc.) and salts of organic acids such as glucuronic acid. Certain specific compounds disclosed herein contain both basic and acidic functional groups that allow the compounds to be converted into either base or acid addition salts.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts disclosed herein can be synthesized from a parent compound having an acidic or basic group by conventional chemical methods. In general, such salts are prepared by the following method: the free acid or base form of the compound reacting with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base or acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture thereof.
The compounds disclosed herein can be in the form of a geometric isomer or stereoisomer. All such compounds are contemplated herein, including cis and trans isomers, (-)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, and racemic mixtures and other mixtures thereof, such as an enantiomer or diastereomer enriched mixture, all of which are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. The substituents such as alkyl may have an additional asymmetric carbon atom. All these isomers and mixtures thereof are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
Unless otherwise stated, the term "enantiomer" or "optical isomer" refers to stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.
Unless otherwise stated, the term "cis-trans isomer" or "geometric isomer" results from the inability of a double bond or a single bond of a cyclic carbon atom to freely rotate.
Unless otherwise stated, the term "diastereomer" or "diastereoisomer" refers to stereoisomers which have a molecule with two or more chiral centers and are in a non-mirror image relationship.
Unless otherwise stated, "(D)" or "(+)" stands for dextrorotation, "(L)" or "(-)" stands for levorotation, and "(DL)" or "(±)" stands for racemization.
Unless otherwise stated, the absolute configuration of a stereogenic center is represented by a wedged solid bond (
) and a wedged dashed bond (
), and the relative configuration of a stereogenic center is represented by a straight solid bond (
) and a straight dashed bond (
). A wavy line (
) represents a wedged solid bond (
) or a wedged dashed bond (
), or a wavy line (
) represents a straight solid bond (
) and a straight dashed bond (
).
Optically active (R)- and (S)-isomers and D and L isomers can be prepared by chiral synthesis or chiral reagents or other conventional techniques. An enantiomer of certain compound disclosed herein can be prepared by asymmetric synthesis or derivatization using a chiral auxiliary, wherein the resulting diastereomeric mixture is separated and the auxiliary group is cleaved so as to provide the desired pure enantiomer. Alternatively, when the molecule contains a basic functional group (such as amino) or an acidic functional group (such as carboxyl), the compound reacts with an appropriate optically active acid or base to form a salt of the diastereoisomer, which is then subjected to diastereomeric resolution through conventional methods in the art to obtain the pure enantiomer. Furthermore, the enantiomer and the diastereomer are generally isolated through chromatography using a chiral stationary phase, optionally in combination with chemical derivatization (e.g., carbamate formation from amines). The compound disclosed herein may contain an unnatural proportion of atomic isotope at one or more of the atoms that constitute the compound. For example, the compound may be labeled with a radioisotope, such as tritium (³H), iodine-125 (¹²⁵I), or C-14 (¹⁴C). For another example, hydrogen can be substituted by deuterium to form a deuterated drug, and the bond formed by deuterium and carbon is firmer than that formed by common hydrogen and carbon. Compared with an un-deuterated drug, the deuterated drug has the advantages of reduced toxic side effect, increased stability, enhanced efficacy, prolonged biological half-life and the like. All isotopic variations of the compound described herein, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. "Optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may, but not necessarily, occur, and the description includes instances where the event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.
The term "substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms on a specific atom are substituted by substituents which may include deuterium and hydrogen variants, as long as the valence of the specific atom is normal and the compound after substitution is stable. When the substituent is oxygen (i.e., =O), it means that two hydrogen atoms are substituted. Substitution by oxygen does not occur on aromatic groups. The term "optionally substituted" means that an atom can be or cannot be substituted by a substituent. Unless otherwise specified, the type and number of the substituent may be arbitrary as long as being chemically achievable.
When any variable (e.g., R) occurs more than once in the constitution or structure of a compound, the definition of the variable in each case is independent. Thus, for example, if a group is substituted by 0-2 R, the group can be optionally substituted by two R at most, and the definition of R in each case is independent. Furthermore, a combination of the substituent and/or the variant thereof is permissible only if the combination can result in a stable compound.
When a variable is a single bond, it means that the two groups are directly linked, for example, in A-L-Z, when L represents a single bond, it means that the structure is actually A-Z.
For the listed linking groups, the direction for linking that is not indicated is arbitrary. For example, when the linking group L contained in

Experimental example 1: In vitro enzymatic activity evaluation

The inhibitory activity of the test compounds against human IRAK4 was evaluated by measuring IC₅₀ values in a ³³P-labeled kinase activity assay (Reaction Biology Corp).
Buffer conditions: 20 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl₂, 1 mM EGTA, 0.02% Brij35, 0.02 mg/mL BSA, 0.1 mM Na₃VO₄, 2 mM DTT, 1% DMSO.

Procedures: The test compound was dissolved in DMSO at room temperature to prepare a 10 mM solution for later use. The substrate was dissolved in fresh buffer, to which the kinase was added and mixed well. The DMSO solution containing the test compound was added to the above mixed reaction system by an acoustic technique (Echo 550). The concentrations of the compounds in reaction system were 10 µM, 3.33 µM, 1.11 µM, 0.370 µM, 0.123 µM, 41.2 nM, 13.7 nM, 4.57 nM, 1.52 nM, and 0.508 nM. After 15 minutes of incubation, the reaction was started by adding ³³P-ATP (activity: 0.01 µCi/µL; the corresponding concentration is listed in Table 1). Supplier's catalog number, lot number and concentration information in the reaction system for IRAK4 and its substrate are listed in Table 1. After 120 minutes of reaction at room temperature, the resulting solution was loaded on P81 ion exchange chromatography paper sheet (Whatman # 3698-915). After repeated washing with 0.75% phosphoric acid solution, the radioactivity of the phosphorylated substrate residue on the paper sheet was measured. The kinase activity data are shown as a comparison of the kinase activity of the test compound and the kinase activity of the blank (DMSO only) and a curve was fitted using Prism4 software (GraphPad) to give IC₅₀ values, with the experimental results shown in Table 2.

Experimental example 2: In vitro stability assay in liver microsome

Metabolic stability in liver microsome
The test compounds at 1 µM were co-incubated with liver microsomes having a protein concentration of 0.5 mg/mL under the action of a reductive coenzyme II regeneration system in a 37 °C water bath.

1) Positive controls included: testosterone (3A4 substrate), propylamine propiophenone (2D6 substrate), and diclofenac (2C9 substrate). The positive controls were incubated in the same condition as the test compounds.
2) The reaction was stopped using a stop reagent containing the internal standard at time points of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 60 minutes. The compounds were co-incubated with the microsomes for 60 minutes in the absence of the reductive coenzyme II regeneration system and served as negative controls.
3) No replicate was set for each time point (n = 1).
4) Samples were analyzed by LC/MS/MS and the concentrations are shown as the ratio of compound peak area to internal standard peak area (non-standard curve).
5) In the summary, the half-life and clearance were calculated
6) The following formula was used to calculate the clearance $C_{t} = \frac{1}{2} C_{0},$
$t_{1 / 2} = \frac{\ln 2}{k} = \frac{0.693}{k} .$
${CL}_{int}^{mic} = \frac{0.693}{In {vitroT}_{1 / 2}} • \frac{1}{mg / mlmicrosomalprotein in incubation}$
- Liver-to-body weight ratio: 88 g/kg for mice
- Clearance in the whole liver was calculated using ${CL}_{int}^{mic}$
  : ${CL}_{int (liver)} = CL • \frac{45 mg \cdot microsomes}{g \cdot liver} • \frac{g \cdot liver}{kg \cdot body \cdot weight}$
- ${CL}_{int}^{mic} :$
  intrinsic microsomal clearance;
- Microsomal protein in incubation: microsomal protein in incubation;
- Microsomes: microsomes;
- Liver: liver;
- Body weight: body weight

The results are summarized in Table 3.

Experimental example 3: In vitro activity assay in cells

TNF-α ELISA assay in THP-1 cells

1. Materials:

THP-1 human acute unicellular leukemia cells were purchased from ATCC (Cat # TIB-202) and incubated in a 37 °C, 5% CO₂ incubator.
The medium was RPMI1640 (Gibco, Cat # 22400-105), the supplementary was 10% FBS (Gibco, Cat # 10091148); 1% PenStrep (Gibco, Cat # 15140); 0.05 mM 2-mercaptoethanol (Sigma, Cat # M6250).

2. Method:

TNF-α content in the culture supernatant was measured by a TNF-α Elisa kit. TNF-α was produced by stimulation of THP-1 cells with 150 ng/mL LPS (Sigma, Cat # L6529).
Normal THP-1 cells in logarithmic phase were inoculated in 96-well plates (Corning #3599) at a certain concentration (1 × 10⁵/100 µL) and then incubated in an incubator. After two hours, 16.7 µL of test compound of different concentrations (8 × final concentration) was added and the mixture was incubated. After one hour, 16.7 µL of 1200 ng/mL LPS was added and the mixture was incubated. After 18 hours, the culture was centrifuged and the supernatant was collected. The TNF-α content was measured by a TNF-α Elisa kit. Finally, the OD signals (OD450-OD570) were read on an envision plate reader.

3. Data analysis:

The OD450-OD570 signals were converted to percent inhibition. $Inhibition % = (ZPE - sample) / (ZPE - HPE) \times 100 .$
"HPE" represents the OD450-OD570 signal value of the control without LPS-stimulated cells, and "ZPE" represents the OD450-OD570 signal value of the control with LPS-stimulated cells. IC₅₀ values for compounds were calculated by XLFit in the Excel. $Y = Bottom + (Top - Bottom) / (1 + {({IC}_{50} / X)}^{\land} HillSlope) .$

The results are summarized in Table 4.

Experimental example 5: Pharmacodynamic study

Pharmacodynamic study evaluating lipo-polycollagen (LPS)-induced TNF-α secretion in SD rats

1. Modeling and administration

SD rats were orally administered with a solvent, dexamethasone (DEX, 0.5 mg/kg) as positive control, and the test compound, and were intraperitoneally injected with LPS (1 mg/kg) 0.5 hours after the administration. Animals were euthanized with CO₂ 2 hours after LPS injection. Cardiac blood was collected into EDTA-K2 vacutainers, and a part of the anticoagulated blood was centrifuged and the plasma was frozen at -80 °C.

2. Assay of TNF-α and Il-1b

Frozen plasma was thawed at room temperature and the concentration of TNF-α in the plasma was measured using ELISA kit.

3. Statistics

The experimental data were expressed using mean ± SEM, and TNF-α levels were analyzed by One-way ANOVA. Significant differences were considered for p < 0.05. The results of pharmacodynamic study evaluating LPS-induced TNF-α secretion in SD rats are shown in FIGs. 1 and 2.
FIG. 1 shows that: at the same doses, oral WX001 exhibited significant inhibitory effect on lipo-polychollagen (LPS)-induced TNF-α secretion, which was significantly superior to the reference compounds WXR2(ND-2110), WXR3(BAY-1830839) and WXR4 (BAY-1834845). In this experiment, the efficacy of WX001 was equivalent to that of dexamethasone DEX.
FIG. 2 shows that: at the same doses, oral WX001 WX026 and WX044 exhibited significant inhibitory effect on lipo-polychollagen (LPS)-induced TNF-α secretion. In this experiment, the efficacy of WX026 was equivalent to that of dexamethasone DEX.
